It used to scroll but people got jealous of how long it was, so I had to trim it off.

Quoted from Pete B. Lane Upload the image to an image host such as Photobucket (what I use). Then go to "member center" on the top of this page, then to "signature" (you probably know this part) and enter the URL in the signature box using the link provided on Photobucket (or whatever) with [IMG] and [/IMG] around it. As far as making banners, I guess you would Photoshop or MS Paint or some other such image maker. I am willing and able to make banners for you guys, just let me know what you want.

Quoted from Pete B. Lane Also, I forgot to mention. In order for the image to link to your script you have to do this: [url=*link to script here*][IMG]*link to image here*[/IMG][/url] But without the asterisks and spaces.

Thanks a bunch, dude! I currently don't have Photoshop. My laptop is only four months old. I downloaded a mediocre Paint ripoff and messed around a little bit. The result is in my sig. Not outstanding but I figure practice makes perfect.

Thanks again, dude!

You're welcome, glad I could help. That sig is a good start!

Quoted from bert It is the sizing of the banner that I have trouble with. What dimensions are used?  Is there something specific to make them fit so well?

I think I remember Don asking everyone at some point not to post banners that exceeds 200 x 700 (or something like that).

Quoted from Old Time Wesley I think the rather large banner ones are an eyesore. Cornetto has or had a scrolling one which I think used the space well.

Yeah. I liked the scrolling signature he had. The first time I came across it it freaked me out. I was scrolling through a thread and got momentarily stuck on his sig. I was like WTF?

I also like Rendevous' changing avatar. How would you do that?

Quoted from Takeshi I also like Rendevous' changing avatar. How would you do that?

I think it's made as a .gif file, probably in some Photoshop'ish program.

Hey, I think I almost got it.

Not as good as some, but that will come with practice, I suppose.

Anyways, just feeding the hype machine a little -- and this thread seemed as good as any.

For those playing with this themselves, my dimensions were 145 x 800 pixels.

Looks good, Bert!  Looking forward to it, too.  Was very underwhelmed with the last Soul Shadows entry.

Wish I had a clue how to do these things, but I'm not even going to try and fuck with it.  Some tricks, this old dog ain't gonna be learnin'.

I'm looking forward to Tanis comin'

I agree with Jeff, the last one was a dud....

You could give a trusted mod/member access to your account and let them do it for you. Then change your password once it's done.

A very good idea, Bach.  I'll look into it.

Thanks!

My dog's not young. But he'd be learning. And fast when there's reward involved.

You just need to play with the 'more post options' button then the preview one. It shows you how the rest of the internet will see it before you post.

Quite rewarding.

Meh. They're hard to look at. Yes, on an advertising/promotion kind of thing, it's good to see - it's out there, easy to see. One click and you're there.


Simply create a signature, upload it onto photobucket (or tinypic)

It's when you actually INCLUDE the code of your sig into your signature box on here, you need to use a link to link your stuff.

You get the link, and it's something like, adding the link AND the code to your signature together.

Something like that. I remember doing it when I was all into the whole larger-the-signature-the-cooler-I-am thing.

Quoted from mcornetto It used to scroll but people got jealous of how long it was, so I had to trim it off.

For the record, this wasn't jealousy. I use the scroll wheel on my mouse to zip through pages, but when I hit Cornetto's sig, it stopped everything and I ended up scrolling through his signature. It was terribly annoying. So if you miss Cornetto's scrolling signature, I was at least one person who begged him to remove the scrolling bit...

Why not, like, create advertisments on youtube and upload them onto your siganture instead of doing, like, signatures and sht?
